UN agency helps North Korea with patent application for banned nerve gas chemical.
For more than a year, a United Nations agency in Geneva has been helping North Korea prepare an international patent application for production of sodium cyanide — a chemical used to make the nerve gas Tabun — which has been on a list of materials banned from shipment to that country by the U.N. Security Council since 2006.
The World Intellectual Property Organization, or WIPO, has made no mention of the application to the Security Council committee monitoring North Korea sanctions, nor to the U.N. Panel of Experts that reports sanctions violations to the committee, even while concerns about North Korean weapons of mass destruction, and the willingness to use them, have been on a steep upward spiral.
Fox News told both U.N. bodies of the patent application for the first time late last week, after examining the application file on a publicly available WIPO internal website.
Information on the website indicates that North Korea started the international patent process on Nov. 1, 2015 — about two months before its fourth illegal nuclear test. The most recent document on the website is a “status report,” dated May 14, 2017 (and replacing a previous status report of May 8), declaring the North Korean applicants’ fitness “to apply for and be granted a patent.”
Probably just for pest control, you know, like what our Department of Fish and Game uses.
Just remember we fund the UN and they are all our friends and allies.
Get the UN out of the US and get the US out of the UN.
Tell China to get that little shit under control or their products will be banned from entering our country. Should only take one or two phone calls.
Wow! Sodium AND Cyanide! Two great tastes in one!
Why does he need Tabun, he already has VX and has used it. Maybe a less persistent agent subsequent to occupation?
It’s miscible in water so if placed into a warhead, could be used to poison water systems.
We are headed into a desperate crisis with these commie fanatics.
Check the UN files again, maybe his nuclear stuff is has legal patents and is okie dokie according to the UN. Iran didn’t have problem thanks to Obama.
Evil has outbalanced Good lately…time for it to be eliminated, little (Kim) by little.
The “World Intellectual Property Organization” grants property rights to mass murder.
Really?
This is fake news. WIPO my ass.
NOKO will argue its also a common ingredient in processing of copper and other ore. Nice cover.
The stuff ain’t exactly rare. Annual production tops half a million tons world wide.
What Cato said. Get rid of the POS body of phucks.
